Compensation/Honorarium:

Plenary Lecture:

Marsh Professors generally deliver a plenary lecture open to the entire community every visit or every other visit in addition to meeting with students and visiting classes. Arrangements will be coordinated by the President’s Office in partnership with the Faculty Host.

Reception:

There will be a reception for each speaker following the plenary lecture.
It should be an opportunity for faculty, staff, and students to meet the
speaker and share ideas.

There should be an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students
to interact with the Marsh Professor. We recommend an informal lunch. The President's Office will cover lunch expenses under the direction of Susan Davidson.

Advertising:

Please contact Susan to initiate campus advertising and to obtain the poster form. When Susan receives the completed poster form, she will send the Faculty Host a draft of the poster; after the poster draft has been approved, 265 copies of our standard 11x17 poster will be printed. Twenty-five posters will be forwarded to the faculty host for distribution. The remaining posters will be distributed using campus distribution lists including Deans, Directors, and Department Chairs and Residential Life. The Faculty Host may choose to advertise the lecture to appropriate University units via email. Susan will also relay the pertinent information to the University Communications Office.

Video Taping:

All lectures are videotaped and catalogued in the Bailey-Howe Media Library
assuming the speaker consents. Two copies are made: one for the media library
and one for the host department.

Request for Permission to Post Audio/Video Recordings
on the Web:

The University through the Office of University Communications is launching
a new initiative posting audio and video recordings of guest lectures and
speakers, special events, and other high profile events that might be of
interest to broader audiences on the UVM website. The recording(s) would
be posted for educational use, and would be accessible by all. The lecture,
or clips from the lecture, may appear on the University of Vermont website,
or in web locations maintained by UVM staff. In order to post the recordings,
the University needs to secure permission of the speaker. Please send two
signed copies to the speaker in advance of their arrival and request that
they sign and maintain one copy for their records and return one copy to
Gary Derr (address provided) or bring to Faculty Sponsor during the visit.
